this is not another trivial washington argument. i have said that this is the defining issue of our time and i mean it. a make or break moment for america's middle class and i believe in it. the decisions we make in the next few years on everything from debt and taxes to energy and education will have an enormous impact on this country and on the country we pass on to our children. now these childrens are not new. we've been restling with these issues for a wrong time. the problems we're facing right now have been more than a decade in the making. and what is holding us back is not a lack of big ideas. it isn't a matter of finding the right technical solution. both parties have laid out that policies on the table for all to see. what's holding us back is a stalemate in washington between two fundamentally d lly differe views of which direction america should take. and this election is your chance to break that stalemate. at stake is not a choice between two candidates or two political parties. it's between two paths for our country.

washington should stop subsidizing millionaires. in fact, if you're earning a million dollars a year, you shouldn't get special tax subsidies or deductions. on the other hand, if you make under $250,000 a year, like 98% of american families, your taxes shouldn't go up. you are the ones struggling with rising costs and stagnant wages. you are the ones who need relief. now you can call this class warfare all you want but asking a billionaire to pay at least as much as his secretary in taxes? most americans would call that common sense. we don't begrudge financial success in this country. we admire it. when americans talk about folks like me paying my fair share of taxes, it's not because they envy the rich it's because they understand that when i get a tax break i don't need and the country can't afford it either adds to the deficit or somebody else has to make up the difference. like a senior on a fixed income. or a student trying to get through school. or a family trying to make ends meet. that's not right. americans know that's not
